    I don't idle... you know... even when I was with that other outfit that didn't have APU's... Now I have ThermoKing :yes2557: But the temp is soooo agreeable that I haven't been using any a/c or heater at all... :biggrin_25512:

    Yes... I froze many times when I was with my former co. Not only because of their idle policy but also because I don't like to idle... :biggrin_25512:
    Last winter I got frost bite on almost all my 5 fingers of my right hand cause I took hrs shoveling snow and breaking ice with my hammer so I could back the truck where it needed to be... Now I am bringing my gloves... just in case...

    And I have something similar for my feet too... :yes2557:
